LoLz. There is no actor out there that has been the subject of more jokes than this man! Chuck Norris is a living legend who has wowed audiences for many years. His martial arts prowess has made him a legend, even starring next to such greats as Bruce Lee.
Today is a very SPECIAL day for Chuck….he turns 70 years old!
Not that that means anything, he will be alive to fight of the radioactive cockroach armies long after the rest of the human race is wiped out.
In honour of this amazing guy we at Springleap.com have decided to hold a competition:
All you need to do is come up with a brilliant Chuck Norrisjoke, the winner gets a FREESpringleap.com t-shirt….it’s that easy boys and girls.

We will make a posting as soon as we know who the winner is
Please be aware that this competition is only open to our SA members.
Have a chucking good day and once again…Happy Birthday Chuck Norris!!!!
Hi there all you designers out there! Guess what time….no it’s not time to join the military (that is for fools). It’s time to check our Springleap.com’s latest theme competition. Give it up for 8-Bit Bytes Back, a trip down memory lane to the video games of the 80’s.
This design competition is going to be very popular if my precognition has anything to say about it.
Ok so for those of you who don’t know what 8-Bit actually means, it refers to a specific old school generation of video game consoles that ran 8-bit cartridges (also known for 8-bit electronic music). The days of cartridge gaming is for the most part, a thing of the past. They cartridge style is no way as powerful as the modern gaming standard of DVD’s, which can hold much more space and even granderpotential for graphics. However, there are still thousands of diehard fans that still enjoy blasting around on these old retro gaming consoles. 8-bit gaming may be dead, but every now and then it feels good to resurrect it from the grave and have a few laughs and screams.
Springleap.com recognises that there are still loads of us out there that still appreciate 8-bit games and indeed, make it part of our lives…after all it’s our gaming heritage. Our latest competition 8-Bit Bytes Back is an ode to a style that is looked upon with fond memories.
Can you conjure up a truly awesome 8-bit styled t-shirt design? I’m sure you all have plenty of great ideas for this one….it’s going to be a wicked fun competition.
There is quite a bit happening at Springleap.com at the moment in regards to theme competitions. While Battle of the Best has drawn to a close and the voting has started on Faces of Africa, we still have two other active compos, that being the Us competition and the Advanced Photoshop theme.
These current competitions are both mammoth in their own right and both are unique in what they offer.
As far as the current competitions go the Us theme competition is a real chance to not only create the very first branded Springleap.com design, but also enables you design the possibility of becoming a part of our very own website makeover later this year. Imagine how cool it would be that whenever somebody opens our page that your design is the first thing they see. Honestly that is professional exposure that doesn’t come around very often….in fact as far as I’m aware I have never known a competition that has two such equally amazing prize potential. I know that many designers, especially the past winners who have been focusing on the Battle of the Best have not had much time to sink their teeth into the Us theme competition, however the good news is that we have decided to extend the competition until the 9th of March.
Yes thats right all you designers out there, you still have a good few days to submit a design that will change the very aesthetic of Springleap.com and become iconic….just imagine all the positive exposure and job possibilities that will arise from this competition WOW!!!!
In my last posting you would have seen that we have already selected our winner for the Battle of the Best, which went to Sebasebi’s stunning Mr. Cosmos design.
While that massive compo has ended it is now time to look ahead and discover the talent that will become our new Battle of the Best winner. The talent for our latest competition is no less amazing, so scope out my Faces of Africa top designs.
My first choice has to be Jabanero’s new design Biko is beautiful. Many of you who were involved with the 35 nations of Football theme competition will be familiar with his submission entitled Gale Force Football. While he didn’t win that competition his design was still very popular and narrowly missed out on the win. This time around however Jabanero has almost definitely assured himself at least a spot in the top 5. He has two similar variations of his Biko is beautiful design. One in the shape of Africa and the other, which I have added to this blog, is the shape of a baobab tree. Both of them are simply stunning and deserve to win this compo.
Biko is such a well known leader in the struggle against apartheid, that I am certain that this design will rise to the top with little difficulty. Biko is beautiful is a superb design with great text detail and an iconic Biko face that just seems so stalwart and determined.
If this design doesn’t win I will be pretty surprised….well either one of Jabanero’s Biko inspired designs that is.
